The Westlake Village Junior Women's Club recently welcomed 26 new members to the organization and introduced the incoming board members for 2008-09.

Outgoing co-presidents Leslie Adams and Candi James, who had served for two years, welcomed the new co-presidents, Roselle Wolfe and Roubina Coleman.

The incoming pair introduced new board members and thanked the outgoing board and all members for disbursing more than $64,000 to Conejo Valley charities during the club's fiscal year.

The evening concluded with the annual Junior of the Year ceremony. This year's honor was given to Brooke MacLean and Kelly Sarac for their four years of inspirational leadership and recent two-term position as co-vice presidents of membership.

"We are extremely proud to have Brooke and Kelly as leaders in our organization," said Coleman. "Their energy and enthusiasm is contagious, and the entire Conejo Valley has benefitted from their dedication to the needy of our community."

Westlake Village Junior Women's Club was established in 1968 and has been providing service to the Conejo Valley ever since. Membership is open to all women from the greater Conejo Valley area. Members regularly volunteer for Meals on Wheels, which delivers hot and cold food to people in need.

In 2007-08, the club gave money to many local charities, including Many Mansions, Lighthouse Women and Children's Mission, Senior Concerns, MakeA-Wish Foundation, Assistance League, Camp Keepsake, FOOD Share, Malibu Pet Companions, Simi Valley Hospital, Universal Love Foundation, Optimist International Foundation/Santa Comes to Agoura, Westminster Presbyterian Church, Friends of Westlake Library, Temple Adat Elohim, Hospice of the Conejo and Ride On Therapeutic Horsemanship.
